NPI Day 30

Posted: under writing.
Tags: book, Cirellio, End of the Book, magic, novel, Novel Push Initiative, NPI, writing

WC: 512.

It’s been a wonderful, fruitful month… I’m soo much closer to the End of the Book now—The story is so much clearer on the page and in my mind than it has ever been before—And I’m much, much closer to finally scaling that un-scalable mountain I’ve been blogging about ever since my very first post.

I bet if I hadn’t had the gall to run this event and the stubborn-ness to stick with it to the end of March, I’d still be at least 10,000 words ago. I bet if I hadn’t had the audacity to start blogging about writing, I’d still be stuck way back on a rudimentary version of chapter 5. Cirellio would probably still be stuck in the middle of the Shiirati Desert, wondering what the heck to do next. Now … it all seems like so long ago. I bet if I didn’t have the support of all the great people that visit this site, I wouldn’t be feeling too good about my writing; I might’ve called it quits by now. This whole experience has been magical for me, so thank you!!!!!!!!!

Tomorrow marks the final day of the Novel Push Initiative. And the final word count. Get that wine ready!

;)

  • Just finished Robert Jordan's 'The Path of Daggers'; It was a slow read, but the last 100 pages were explosive. On to 'Winter's Heart'! 2010/07/03
